I WAS YOUR PRIME MINISTER!

आहुति बाकि यज्ञ अधूरा 

अपनों के विघ्नों ने घेरा 

अंतिम जय का वज्र बनाने 

नव दधिची हड्डिया गलाए 

आओ फिर से दिया जलाये  

-पं. अटल बिहारी वाजपेयी 

25 December 1924, Christmas was being, celebrated in the British India. That time in the house of Krishna Devi and Krishna Bihari Vajpayee in Gwalior, a boy was born. The boy was from a middle class Brahmin family and, who was going to be the 11^th PM of India. The boy was a poet, a diplomat, a Prime Minister and a noble man from his personality. Oh! So sorry I did not tell you, He is Bihari too, “Atal Bihari”. Atal Bihari Vajpayee completed his schooling from the Saraswati Shishu Mandir, and after that, he went to Victoria College in Gwalior, from where he graduated in Hindi, English and Sanskrit. He did his M.A. in political science with distinction from Dayanand Anglo-Vedic College, Kanpur.

He joined the Rastriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) in 1939. He was associated with the youth wing of Arya Samaj too, of which he became the General Secretary in 1944. Due to the riots of 1947 between Hindus and Muslims, he gave up studying law. He also worked for the newspapers of Pt. Deendayal Upadhyaya Rastradharma (a Hindi monthly), Panchjanya (a Hindi weekly) and dailies Swadesh and Veer Arjun.

Vajpayee ji never married and, remained a bachelor throughout his entire life. When he became PM, he performed Pokhran 2, a test to understand the nuclear strength of India. India faced an economic ban from the USA and many other developed nations, but Atal ji did not give up and struggle that situation with great bravery. He faced Kargil war, a backstabbing by Pakistan, that time every leader of the opposition tried to degrade Atal ji, but just like his name “Atal” (Firm, Concrete) he faced every bad situation and survived that time too. He was the PM who initiated Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana, which joined every possible village of the nation; roads from it connected every poorest and backward area of the nation. He laid National Highway network, which changed the view of the infrastructure in our nation. He was the person who dreamed to provide mobile phones to the poorest of the poorest person of the India, and who set the rates so that anyone can afford them.

Everyone, every political leader of this nation, respects him. He was the person who maintained the secularism of the nation in true meaning. He never tried to dishearten any religion in the nation. He has done every possible thing for the nation, created jobs, brought investment, maintained good bonds with neighbour nations, controlled inflation and fulfilled every promise, which he made to the nation. He was, he is and he will always be the best politician in our political history. I wish him a healthy and long life. Thank you, Atal ji for your contribution, to the nation and, in the growth of it. We owe so much to you. I wish you a very happy birthday and merry Christmas. Moreover, friends, yes “He Was Our Prime Minister”.

GURU GOVIND SINGH: A SYMBOLISATION OF BRAVERY & VALOUR

It 22 December, on this day 348 years ago, a legend was born, a legend that enlightened the world from his valour. He was a symbol of bravery that showed a different way to live the life, for the Indians. A legend who fought for the weak people of the society, a legend who is the real role model for anyone, I am talking about- Guru Govind Singh. He was a warrior, philosopher and poet, who contributed so much for the Sikhism. He became the leader of Sikhs at a young age of nine due to his father’s sacrifice for the society. He was the son of Guru Tegh Bahadur, ninth guru of Sikhs. His major contribution was to initiate the Sikh Khalsa in 1699, passing the Guru-ship to the Eternal Sikh Guru, the Guru Granth Sahib- holy book of the Sikhs.

In 1699, Guru Ji addressed his followers on April 13, 1699, the day of Vaisakhi. He addressed the worshippers from the entryway of a tent pitched on a small hill. He first asked everyone, who he was for them? Everyone answered - "You are our Guru." He asked them, who were they, to which everyone replied - "We are your Sikhs." He then said that today the Guru needs something from his Sikhs. Everyone said, "Hukum Karo, Sache Patshah" (Order us, True Lord). Then withdrawing his sword, he asked for a volunteer who was willing to sacrifice his head. No one answered his call, but on later invitation, Daya Ram came forward and offered his head to the Guru. Guru Govind Singh took the volunteer inside the tent. The Guru returned to the crowd with blood dripping from his sword. He then demanded another head. One more volunteer came forward, and entered the tent with him. The Guru again emerged with blood on his sword. This happened three more times. Then the five volunteers came out of the tent in new clothing unharmed.

Guru Govind Singh Ji then poured clear water into an iron bowl and added Punjabi sweeteners into it, he then stirred it with a double-edged sword along with reading from Adi Granth. He called this mixture as Amrit ("holy water") and gave it to the five men. Guru Ji later honored these five men, who were ready to sacrifice their life, as Panj Pyare. They were the first (baptized) Sikhs of the Khalsa: Daya Ram, Dharam Das, Himmat Rai, Mohkam Chand, and Sahib Chand.

Guru Govind Singh then called a line, which has been the rallying-cry of the Khalsa since then: 'Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji Ki Fateh' (Khalsa belongs to God; victory belongs to God). He gave them the entire name "Singh" (lion), and selected them as the Khalsa, the body of baptized Sikhs.

He founded a valiant tribe who must have five K’s along them- Kachha, Kangha, Kesh, Kirpan and kada. Whose mission was to fight for the society and, against the injustice of Mughals, they saved so many weak people from being, converted into Islam. His life is an inspiration for us; we should honor him and respect his life in the society. We should learn from his life and protect the poor people of the society from being, converted into a Christian and Muslims, who are doing this forceful conversion since independence. His life, his principles and his dedication to the society is worth to remember. I believe the people of the society should learn the characters of selflessness, patriotism and dignity from him!

How Convocations Can Help You Live a Better Life!

On 11 December, this year I witnessed the most awaiting event in the life of a scholar. The event gives you the feeling that you have passed your graduation successfully. This event has a bigger importance, believe me, you should not miss this event by any means, and if you are out of the city-, you should come, if you are doing a job- you should come! I mean you should visit your college by any means – I am talking about, convocation.

You can say this is the most awaited event after completing your graduation. You visit your college once again (perhaps for the last time), you meet all the familiar faces who made your life miserable for the last 3-4 years, ha-ha! You meet your teachers and share your life after the college; you talk about various vicissitudes, which you are experiencing after college.  You talk about your memories, which you have shared with your friends. You get a chance to see your college architecture once again, and you feel nostalgic by seeing every corner of it.

I got a chance similar like every other scholar. I met my closest friends, my faculties, old crush and many other familiar faces. It was a great feeling to meet them once again, felt overwhelmed and relived the four years of my graduation. I missed every one of them, and you know this 11 December passed quickly, that I cannot describe. All the handsome boys and pretty chicks were looking extremely adorable.

I wish I could relive my college life once again, but you know it is not possible. We cannot go back to the college, sit in the canteen, stare elegant people and do whatever we wish. No, it is not possible. When we are living something or going through a phase, we always hate it, but when we finish that phase - we miss those memories too much. I miss my college too much, I love my college, and I miss those memories.

I can agree on the popular phrase, ″No knowledge without college”, it is true about the college life!

A Day In History

It’s 16 December, this day has a great importance in the history of Indian Defense, and today I am going to share about an incident, which created a new nation. On this day, 33 years ago under the command of General Sam Manekshaw India created a new nation, Bangladesh, from the map of Pakistan. India in collaboration with Eastern Pakistan started Operation Chengiz Khan against the barbarism and cruelty of Pakistan army, who were slaughtering millions of people in the East Pakistan. The war lasted for 13 days, and it made 90,000 to 93,000 Pakistan Armed Forces with paramilitary personnel as war prisoners by Indian army. In addition, Pakistan faced a huge humiliation from this incident.

“This is Sam Manekshaw.

Indian Army is in Bangladesh.

Your Air force is, destroyed.

You are, surrounded on all sides and if you do not surrender,

You all will be killed unmercifully.”

-          Sam Manekshaw during the war

General Manekshaw planned every move very carefully and strategically, he created pressure on Pakistan Army very bravely and which resulted in the victory of India. The pictures of signature between Lt. Gen Arora and Lt. Gen Niyazzi are the best memory regarding the war. India won the war from every side, in air, water or land. Moreover, India defeated Pakistan Army in Eastern and Western fronts of the border.

Our Army created a nation for the sake of the native people. India could exaggerate the war and could do more harm for Pakistan, but after freeing Sheikh Mujibur Rehman, India concluded the war. Indian army was brave and humble; we have done big harm for the Pakistan in minimum sacrifice.

After winning the war, Indira Gandhi and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto signed Shimla agreement, which ensured the Independence of Bangladesh and returning of POW's. India treated all the POW's in strict relation with the Geneva-Convention, rule 1925. It released more than 90,000 Pakistani POW's within five months.

The agreement also gave back more than 13,000 km² of land that, Indian troops had seized in West Pakistan during the war, though India retained a few strategic areas. However, some in India felt that the treaty had been too merciful to Bhutto, who had begged for leniency, arguing that the fragile democracy in Pakistan would crumble if Pakistanis took the agreement as being overly harsh and that he would be, accused of losing Kashmir in addition to the loss of East Pakistan.

This day is to remind the sacrifice and bravery of Indian Army. I want to say that we love you; you have made us proud every time, Indian Army. You are the best, whenever we need you-you are always there for us! Thanks

An Incident, which we should not forget!!!

03 Dec. 14, 20:47

Thirty years ago, a place in India named as “Bhopal” faced one of most horrendous nights in the history of human civilization. The disaster or catastrophe is known as the Bhopal Gas Tragedy, which occurred by gas leak in the Union Carbide. It is, also known as the world’s worst industrial disaster. 

It happened from the night of 2 December and continued until 3 December 1984 at Union Carbide India Limited pesticide plant in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. The gas leaked from the plant was Methyl Isocyanate, and it affected near about 500,000 people. It was so poisonous that it made its way in and around the towns situated near the plant.

It leads to the death of near about 3787 people, which confirmed by M.P. Government. Ingrid Ackerman estimated near about 8,000 died or more within two weeks from the day of the gas leak. Nevertheless, believe me it has ruined the life of so many people, which cannot calculate. 

The reason of this catastrophe is a debatable question. The Government of India and many activists alleged careless management and delayed maintenance, which made a situation where routine pipe upholding caused a back-flow of water into a MIC tank, which eventually triggered the disaster. Union Carbide challenged that the water entered the tank through an act of sabotage.

The plant was in charge, by Warren Anderson, who was CEO at that time in Bhopal. Many court cases filed against him, but all the cases were useless because he ran from the nation immediately after the incident, and he never returned.

Let me talk now, what I actually want to convey. The people, who were accused and involved in the incident, got no imprisonment or serious punishment. The laws were, changed for those people, the actual punishment was about 7 years, but the sections in Indian Penal Code (IPC) were changed and only two people got punishment, which was two years only. The compensation was about 7000 crores but it settled by the Government of congress about 750 crores.

The affected people got neither any compensation nor any justice from Indian Government. Warren Anderson, who was responsible in this incident never, returned to India and he avoided Indian laws throughout his life. He expired in 2014.

The effects can be, observed in the people in 2014. The people there are mostly blind or having some physical disorder. Whenever I see their pictures, my heart cries for them. Many children, women, men, adults and elder people, who were innocent suffered this horrific night. They slept on 2 December and never woke up. Internet is full of stories, reports and pictures, of the affected people and every report is screaming for the justice. The justice for the people, they do not need money or fame, they need justice, pure justice.

I hope I have expressed my views about Bhopal Tragedy.

Have a Good Night.

WHY INSTAGRAM ADDICTIONS ARE SEXY!!!

Instagram is one of the most popular social media applications, where you can post your pictures and videos, and you can promote it. It is entirely different from Facebook, Whatsapp and Twitter, and from other photo applications like PhotoGrid, which are available in Android and IOS. It not only provides to promote our life among people but also gives us an opportunity to do the marketing of our business. Some of the biggest brands such as Aston Martins, Ferrari, KFC, Apple, etc. are using this application to promote their product worldwide. Not only big brands, but also every small retailer is using Instagram to endorse its product among others. It is really an addictive application, and from the last two years since its launch, they have gained so much revenue from its active users. Let us talk about various aspects about Instagram-

HELPS IN GAINING FOLLOWERS -

Instagram is one of those communities, where we can find gaining so many followers. It means you have to interact beyond uploading pictures, like, commenting on pictures and liking the pictures of other people, also replying the comments on your pictures. Always remember, you have to search those people who shares same interests just like you, because it will be easy for them to follow you back. It will, allow you to see their latest uploads on your home page and vice versa. Do not follow every second person either you would not see other’s pictures properly. When someone likes or makes comment on your pictures, it is necessary for you to do that because that person will discover you interesting and interacting.

CAN BE A EFFECTIVE FOR BUSINESS ADVERTISEMENT -

When, you are doing a business of a particular product. You should use hashtags in Instagram, which are a major part here. This helps you to search something using Instagram searches. A person needs to write “#XYZ” in the search bar and he can find his result. In addition, the tag should not be bigger; it should be limited, which can make a search result better. Include your business name in your posts to create hash tags. The created hash tags must be creative and unique, so that it can run a good marketing campaign for your product. For example, soda brand can use a creative hash tag like #ThursdaySODAday, to connect with their community; it will encourage good audience for the brand.

GENERATES GOOD NUMBER OF LIKES -

One of the best ways to achieve maximum number of likes on every picture is by posting good pictures. The pictures should be full of creativity; consistently posting beautiful, interesting content, which stands above from other pictures, is an awesome way to be popular. Therefore, the photographer must do something different, which is out of the box, if your followers do not know what the next picture will be; they will be sticking around and liking your pictures. Always remember whatever the subject of the picture is, people on Instagram prompt to have good reactions, which has great colors and interesting contrast, in short the pictures, which are most appealing. A person usually likes mountains, beaches, rivers, monuments, delicious food, etc. pictures on Instagram, which appeals them mostly.

WRAPPING UP – This application is my favorite one and I have made so many friends on Instagram. This application has increased my interest in photography I am addicted towards it. My username is aarundh, if you have Instagram do follow me. I would love to show you my talent and creativity.

WHY CRICKET ACCIDENTS ARE SCARIER, THAN ANY OTHER SPORTS MISHAP!!!

Phillips Hughes, 26 years old, faced a bouncer by Sean Abbot on 2014-11-27, in a match between NSW vs. South Australia. He was batting really well, but just one bouncer changed the circumstances forever. The ball hit beneath his left ear, and he sent to hospital immediately. He struggled with the circumstances as much he could, but on Thursday the 27^th, he lost his battle against the destiny. He was a talented person who played 26 test matches and 25 ODI matches for Australia; he was one of the most recognized batsmen of the nation. It is not the first incident that a player lost his life in a cricket match; many people have lost their lives in the past. Let us talk about them:

Ian Foley, one of the most respected all rounder of 80's and early 90's, in the English County, and who played for England too, was invincible player of the game. In a game for White haven, Foley beard a blow on the right below his right eye. He sent to the hospital immediately, where he faced a heart attack and died. He was 30 years old at that time.

One such Incident occurred with India too. A cricketer named as, Raman Lamba, he was one of the promising batsmen who showed up in the 90's along with some legends like Saurav Ganguly, Sachin Tendulkar and Sachin Tendulkar. Raman played 4 test matches and 32 ODI matches for India, he had a good batting average but on February 23, 1998 in Dhaka, a ball while fielding at short-leg position hit Lamba’s temple. He was dead after the three days due to the internal haemorrhage.

Such are the biggest examples, which occurred on the field Phillip Hughes, Ian Foley and Raman Lamba, are some of the examples but the list goes on. Cricket is a beautiful game, but some incidents like this make a blot on it. Yes, when you are playing a game, there is a big chance of injury, I agree! In modern days, we can find some good equipment in the market, but still the accidents and mishaps are not easy to avoid.

I have seen many sports such as Formula one, Moto GP, soccer, wrestling and boxing, where incidents occur at any time. I hope I have shared what I wanted to reveal. Sports should play with great heart, will and determination, I am sad about Phillip, he was talented, I hope may he rest in peace. May he find peace in heaven!

Thanks for reading!

The Supreme Sacrifice of Guru Tegh Bahadur!

On 24 November 1675 at Chandni Chowk, Delhi one of the most extreme event occurred that made a deep impact on the future course of Sikhism, which is the religion of the Sikhs. The ninth Sikh Guru, Guru Tegh Bahadur performed the supreme sacrifice for the protection of many humans. The basic motif was to protect the rights to practice his or her religion without any interference. This may not matter to anyone, people may say that it was so small and it has no relevance nowadays, but in 1675, when Mughals were converting Hindus into Muslims. That time Guru Tegh Bahadur stood for the rights and protection of so many Hindus. Before him, many thousands killed for refusing to change into a Muslim.

It is really, difficult to give one’s life for the sake of other person. People may say that they know many people who have sacrificed their lives for the society, but that was not as big as the sacrifice of Guru Tegh Bahadur. Guru Ji not only protected the right of Sikh people, but also the rights of non-Sikhs, especially Kashmiri Pandits. Kashmiri Pandits were those scholars, who threatened with the conversion to Islam under the terrorism of Aurangzeb. Aurangzeb not only converted a number of non-Muslim, but also conducted a large-scale demolition of the religious places of non-Muslims. He slaughtered a number of people, just because they did not accept the demand of Aurangzeb. A number of Kashmiri Pandits approached Guru Tegh Bahadur, so that he can provide protection to them. This kind of sacrifice was not record in the history of human life before. Guru Ji made a firm decision that changed the moral commitment level, dedication and sacrifice offered by the devotee of God. The Guru made a tough judgment to risk down his life, to protect the rights of the Hindus so that they can follow their religion without any stress.

Aurangzeb and his army humiliated Guru Ji so much. However, he did not give up his values. He protected his principles and rights of Hindus until his last breath. On 24 November 1675, after so much humiliation and cruelty, Guru Ji was martyred. He had to sit on a warm “Tava” and, then his head was, beheaded in broad daylight in the middle of Chandni Chowk. Today, that place in Chandni Chowk, known as Gurudwara Sis Ganj in Delhi. His sacrifice is a major and a prime example of Sikh principles. This sacrifice roused the Hindus from their submissive silence and gave them the strength to know the power of self-respect and sacrifice.

He also termed as “Hind-di-Chadar” or the shield of India.

I respect Guru Ji sincerely; it was he, who protected Hindus at the time of need. We have to learn from the effort of Guru Ji, to protect our society and motherland. The true meaning of selflessness can be, learned from his life at any time.

Is It Necessary?

These days I am reading some news on the television that our Government will cancel the subject of “German” language from Kendriya Vidyalaya throughout the nation. They are saying, they will teach “Sanskrit” instead of “German”. So, is it necessary to do this? I mean what is the inevitability regarding this? Is there urgency that somebody will counter us if we do not do this? No, there is no urgency but the question is about remembering your glorious past and respecting its values.
The Indian culture, especially Hinduism, has a big history. People use to say it is 5000 years old, but I do not believe it because Vedas were written for more than thousands and thousands years ago. A number of great “Maharishi” contributed their part in the formation of the Vedas and this contribution was collaborated by a great “Maharishi” named as Ved Vyas, he divided or differentiated the Vedas equally. They wrote this knowledge in Sanskrit, not in English, German or French. There is a huge knowledge in these Vedas and Purana. Indian people do not need to look at Foreigners for technology and knowledge. If we read these scriptures, Granth (knowledge books) etc. we will acquire so much knowledge. We seriously do not need to look at other countries and discourage our nation, and its values.
German language or any foreign language can provide us the job of a freelancer or an interpreter, but these languages would not give us the knowledge and true meaning of life. It is because the grammar and literature are limited; it is not much. The language, which has limited grammar and limited literature, is not complete and it cannot provide us deeper knowledge about anything. On the contrary, Sanskrit has a wide grammar and there are billions of “Slokas”, which has a complete meaning about every aspect of the life. The language is preserved for the last thousands and thousands years, and I want it to be learned by next generations too. That is why I am favoring Sanskrit over German language.
I advise students to learn as much as the languages they can. They should learn the new advancements in the technology, but people should connect well with the roots of the nation too. They should respect their values, culture and traditions, but they should not feel discouraged about anything, which makes them think that it is valueless in this time. I hope I have raised my feelings from the bottom of my heart.

The NaMo Story - Part #2

A lot of things have occurred since my last post on this topic. This series is related to the Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modi. In the last article, I have discussed about his life, especially his childhood, his struggles, and his devotion towards almighty. Being a CM of Gujarat, his achievements, his challenges, his attitude for good governance and his strive against Gujarat riots.

We all know in the Lok Shabha elections, 2014, due to his power packed campaigned B.J.P won the full majority. It is a record of its kind, because after thirty years, i.e. since 1984 no political party; has ever won a majority in general elections. There are a number of regional and national parties in India and it’s not easy to win an absolute majority in this nation. But due to the “Modi magic”, a political party won 282 Lok Shabha seats, he is our PM for the last six months and he is working really hard to change the scenario and the mind set of the people. Whether it’s in agriculture sector, research, governance, business, etc. take any sector, he is looking forward eagerly to achieve good results for the nation.

When he took the charge as 16th prime minister, since then it has been a 11 rupees reduction in petrol prices and 5 rupees reduction in diesel prices. I know the rates are decided by world markets/barrel, and these days the prices are really low in international market, but for the last five years, this reduction was absent, the rates used to increase that time but now the situation is different. He has started a “Jan-Dhan” Yojana; by this many millions of people will get a direct benefit into their bank accounts. The inflation rates are really low at the present scenario; in October month it was 1.7%, which is the lowest number of the last six years. Many business enterprises are willing to come and invest in India, which is changing the world’s view about us. It will generate more job opportunities and employment for the youngsters.

Recently in the assembly elections, “Modi magic”, in Haryana and Maharashtra B.J.P won with a respected margin. It was a collective effort by leaders of this party, but believe me it was trusted on Narendra Modi, by the people. The situations are not in favor of the present Government but they are working so hard, to change the perspective and situation of the country. I hope our Government will achieve what they desire.

Right now, the PM is in Australia to attend the G-20 summit and he has raised the issue of terror funding & black money, strongly among the top leaders of the world. American president, German Chancellor, British PM etc. all are appreciating the efforts of Modi with a big heart. These days I am observing a good change in the atmosphere, a new energy, an energy which is positive, which is for the welfare of the nation, which is dedicated to the nation and this energy is Narendra Modi.

A Pilgrimage to Remember!

Friends, today I am going to discuss a different thing. I have discussed about many topics in the past, such as food, travelling, politics, finance, etc. but today I will discuss about a religious place, a pilgrimage which has a great importance for Hindus. The place is – Vaishno Devi, it is in Jammu –Kashmir, the state lies in the far north corner of India. The place or the temple is situated at a height and I am going to tell you, about my journey, what I saw, what I observed and what I felt during my visit.

After Diwali, my family decided to visit this Holy place. So on the next day of Diwali we went to J&K, from Baijnath using National Highway-24. The view and scenery in my place, is the major assets. Huge mountains covered with snow throughout the year, gives a heavenly look to the topography here. I have always dreamed to visit the Malta Vaishno Devi temple, but couldn't visit it ever before. You can say it was the will or permission of the almighty. It took us approximately 8 hours to reach there, saw the serenity of Himachal, the busyness of Pathankot and Jammu, Big highways in Srinagar and a crowded place named as Katra. Culture is the last stop from where you have to leave your vehicles and start your journey to the temple.

You can enjoy the horse riding, auto-rickshaw, Palki (a chair which is lifted by some people from front and behind), but the real fun or real test by the trekking. It takes too much strength and the trekking is not easy, but if you have will power and devotion this journey won’t cost you anything. The view from the top is extremely beautiful and breathtaking; the temple complex is always crowded throughout the year. You have to wait and prove your patience that you deserve to have “Darshan”. The heights and chants in “Bhairo Temple”, the cave in “Ardh Kuwari” is just awesome. It took us 15-16 hours to climb and come down from the heights, believe me it was one of the best and the most thrilling journeys I have ever done. It was a pilgrimage to visit. A place to remember!

The Real Iron Man !

31st October has a great importance in the History of Indian. On this auspicious day a stalwart, a legend was born, stalwart who provide us the present map or geography of our India. A son of a farmer who combined 565 princely states into the largest democracy of the world - Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel – A man who constructed India. A person who was raised in poverty, worked hard for his place, never compromised with the rights of poor people and with his principles. He is often known often known as the "Iron Man of India" or "Bismarck of India", he is also remembered as the "Patron Saint" of India's civil servants for establishing modern all-India services. It was he who introduced IAS exams, by the motif to connect more and more youth in the Governmental machinery.
He was raised in the countryside of Gujarat. Sardar Patel was a successful lawyer, but due to the influence of Gandhi ji he left law and joined the Freedom movement. He was a strict devotee of Mahatma Gandhi and he believed in the Gandhi ji’s ideas and philosophy. Patel did not hesitate in using the policy of ‘Saam- Daam- Dand- Bhed’ (to teach, to convince, to punish and to differ) for achieving his objective among the owners of princely states. Such was his resolution that princely states were left with no other option but to merge with India, for the good of India, for the idea of unbreakable India. He is considered as very bright and genius leader of all time, he was a visionary person and was always successful in judging someone.
After winning the election of congress president, in 1946 Sardar Patel was going to be the first prime minister, but due to Nehru’s betrayal he could not achieve it. He was not given the respect which he deserved. I think we should have “Sardar Patel” in many things like currency, we should have a national holiday on 31st October; poverty removal plans, we should have statues on the honor of Sardar Patel. Bad luck of our nation is that we have named everything on the Nehru-Gandhi family, but not anything in the name of Sardar Patel or Bhagat Singh. It’s really sad that most of the Indians don’t know about his contribution, his family, his principles, but we can give a huge lecture on Nehru and Gandhi, really it can happen here. He took responsibility of all India except J&K, he gave full result on adding every princely state, while Nehru took responsibility of Jammu & Kashmir and he failed badly.

31st October, 2014 GOI is going to conduct a “Run for Unity” on the honor of Sardar Patel. I expect this initiative could be more successful than expected. I hope every citizen of India could realize the involvement of him in uniting the nation. He is an unsung hero of, he never asked for any favors and he never got what he actually deserved. We should honor this person every time; I hope I have expressed my feelings among you. I hope you have enjoyed it while reading!

Apple Pay is the "Future" for Online Payments?

Apple is the one of the most famous brand in the mobile phone industry. The look, the design, the touch sensitivity, the features of Apple are awesome, they are way ahead than Android. Apple is a status symbol and everybody wants to purchase it, but here we are going to talk about an extremely first-class service which Apple provides to its customers-Apple Pay.

Apple Pay is the latest innovation of the company, it is a service by which we can buy a number of products online. Company’s new electronic payment system, is an innovation of the highest level. A number of critics have agreed that Apple pay is the future of electronic payments. But the company needs to understand that if they want a global success they need to clear some big hurdles, right now it is available in iPhone 6 and iPhone 6+. The best thing I like about Apple Pay is that we need to use our fingerprint to validate a purchase on our cell phones, which will be the future of payments for goods and service. Once again Apple has shown its vision for the future.

The big difference between Apple Pay and Google Wallet is that, it is user concentric. It is not considered for the credit card companies or retailers. It is designed to make it easier for the customers, which is better than cash, cards. The card payment systems are simple to use, but they are not as easy as Apple Pay. Payment via cards requires multiple steps, where you swipe and type. Sometimes we require to hit multiple check boxes on multiple screens with an electronic pen. It’s a headache, and there’s nothing more annoying than waiting for a transaction in front of your mobile/laptop screen. But in Apple Pay, you touch your iPhone to the terminal, brush the home button with thumb and your work is done. The security provided by Apple is really good; there is no scope where we can face a deception, where we don’t need to worry at all regarding money. Many people may say Apple Pay will fail because Google Wallet failed, they failed because they tried to replace some existing parts of another system. While Apple has smartly partnered with the credit card companies and provided solutions for merchants in their pockets, making it value add, not a replacement.

My Views For Diwali !

Diwali - a festival of lights. Every Hindu who lives anywhere in the world, enjoys it too much. People like me hang around for this Festival for an entire year. We enjoy this festival too much, clean our habitations, our surroundings, and meet our friends, neighbors and even enemies. It is the festival which unites us with our people, but in this article I want to share something which is hurting me for a long time. I want to share those things which I do not like these days, things which people reveal or share when any Hindu festival arrive, due to an agenda.

For the last few days, I am watching news/ads/reports on internet, newspapers and television which are screaming that don’t burn crackers, they will harm our nature our climate etc. etc. and they also give unnecessary and wrong data that Diwali festival causes maximum pollution than any other Festival in the world. They say carbon dioxide emission is increased by this festival and it must not be celebrated by Indians. They say Mother Nature is disturbed by this festival and Indian people cause a huge amount of pollution and they should not celebrate this festival by any means.

Why those so called “Nature-Lovers” don’t protest during any Muslim festival when a number of innocent cattle and animals are slaughtered? Why they don’t protest against those nations who burn a huge number of fireworks at New Year eve, why they don’t say anything at that time? But before any Hindu festival they start protesting, waterless Holi, Rakhi less Rakhi, cracker less Diwali etc.

These so called lovers don’t protest when a number of people buy cars, and emit huge amounts of greenhouse gases and CFC's. They don’t realize that a car emits more CFC's in a year than a festival, where people burn crackers only for four hours at maximum. If these people love nature, so much, why they don’t stop purchasing cars.

I respect nature, so much, but I don’t think a festival could harm our nature, this much. I believe in philosophies that if you do something against nature, try to return in bigger amount. Plant more trees so that greenhouse gases could be limited. Stop setting an agenda against Hindu festival, we love our nature more than foreign countries, we worship it and we realize that no one has any right to spoil it. We treat nature as our mother, from our heart not for an agenda.
Anyway, I am going to celebrate Diwali to the fullest and I will plant trees on the next day too, I suggest you to celebrate it the way you want. May this Diwali bring you a lot of happiness and prosperity!
